How do I? Vehicle lights Always On
How do I? Vehicle lights Always On
How do I set my vehicle lights to always be on at night? I get having to turn them on once it gets dark but to have to turn them on every time I visit the vehicle after viewing other vehicles is excessive.

Not sure there is a setting/mod for that, whether the engine being on constantly would work (in the settings menu)

Turn automatic engine start off, the engine is still running and the lights are staying on when you exit the verhicle, I believe.
Re: How do I? Vehicle lights Always On
go into the xml and comment out the index links. that would leave them on 24/7 though and take yoiur control away from turning them on/off. However, Im wondering if you add the oncreate user attribute in the i3d and then the daynight attributes in the xml if that would work. like on placeables.
Re: How do I? Vehicle lights Always On
If I leave the lights on, they stay on until I turn them off again, so I don't understand this...

Turn automatic engine start off. Even if you manually shut the engine down the lights will stay on unless you manually shut them off.

I think they meant after toggling through different vehicles and back

If you are on PC there is the Auto Light On/Off mod which will turn on the lights whenever you enter a vehicle at night.
Re: How do I? Vehicle lights Always On
Either way, I have never experienced the lights turning off by themselves...xlisa1986x wrote: ↑Thu Jan 26, 2023 10:15 pmI think they meant after toggling through different vehicles and back

I have, but my car is an old Saab so...
Re: How do I? Vehicle lights Always On
Odd. My engines will shut off sometimes if I tab through vehicles, but my lights always stay on until I turn them off or re-load the game. Even blinkers and beacons.
Must have some good batteries....

FS22 is the best one yet. Fight me!
Re: How do I? Vehicle lights Always On
I tried the hint about turning off the auto engine on setting. That does keep my lights on unless I assign a helper to drive somewhere. They always turn off the engine and shut down the lights.JDMFarms wrote: ↑Thu Jan 26, 2023 4:02 pm go into the xml and comment out the index links. that would leave them on 24/7 though and take yoiur control away from turning them on/off.

I tried setting the same Keyboard key for all lights but that didn't work.
I am good with the idea of daytime running lights always on. Have never messed with xml files before. Can you provide more explanation please?

Re: How do I? Vehicle lights Always On
sorry, i was advised offline that the user attributes was changed in FS22 so my technique is antiquated. maybe someone else can help until i get caught up with the FS22 nuances.
Re: How do I? Vehicle lights Always On
I suppose I could do the old school method and go to bed at sundown. Can't help thinking there is a negative to that.

Re: How do I? Vehicle lights Always On
You never mentioned before that you also had the workers in the equation... You can't stop them from turning the lights off when they leave the vehicle.Helazak wrote: ↑Sun Jan 29, 2023 8:51 pmI tried the hint about turning off the auto engine on setting.
